I've noticed that actual trades do not affect the Apprasial Skill. Instead, When the Broker actually goes to the depot when the Merchants are there, the skill increases. It seems like when I start a new fortress, if I use a dwarf without appraisal skill, he'll already have Dabbling Appraiser before I actually trade goods. Anyone else notice this? --Wahnsinniger 12:58, 19 November 2007 (EST)
- I thought the appraiser skill was only really used to be able to see the price of the goods when you trade? Thus, it doesn't have much use in itself, it's simply pretty neat to actualy know accuratly what you're trading for and against in term of price. --Eagle of Fire 13:50, 19 November 2007 (EST)
I have noticed this as well. Further, it appears that only the first dwarf to examine a given set of trade goods will gain skill. --
I think the statement that "Selecting items to trade doesn't give skill" is incorrect, and actually is giving skill. I recently selected a whole slew of items with my non-legendary mayor/trader, but noticed I didn't have enough to afford all the caravan's goods so backed out of the trade window... then I noticed he just hit legendary. I could be mistaken and he had already been legendary before he got to the depot, but I'm fairly sure he wasn't. Lightning4 19:35, 1 December 2007 (EST)

Gaining experience
So is experience gained quicker through single large transactions, that is trading loads of goods and clearing out the caravan in one transaction, or is offering more smaller transactions a better way? I've not been able to tell any difference so far but it seems reasonable that one way would be better. Extar 19:47, 25 August 2008 (EDT)
Appraiser & Bookeeping
Are we sure that bookkeeping gives appraiser experience? Because I have a new bookkeeper in training, and she hasn't gained any appraiser skill. --User:Strangething, unsigned
- You are correct; it does not give that experience. --Savok 17:48, 12 June 2008 (EDT)
